1901016 - Remove descriptions from text and tracing marker schemas

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Nazım Can Altınova [:canova][:canaltinova on phabricator]]

After renewing our marker schemes, "descriptions" were added to both text and tracing markers schemes. They don't really provide a lot of value to the users because this is an implementation detail and because users shouldn't need to know about which marker has which schema type really.

Here's a profile example you can see both text and tracing examples with their descriptions: https://share.firefox.dev/4aNT4gN

It's really not possible to add a single meaningful description to these marker
types since they can be used by various marker types. Previous descriptions
were not really descriptive or helpful for the users. They were just explaining
some implementation details which our users don't need to know.

For the implementation details, we already check if this Description field
is nullptr or not, and if it's falsy we don't serialize this field at all:
